@00:26I admit life has pain--but the way the story is handled cinematically makes it hard to know which character I am meant to sympathize for. At first I really wanted the ladybug to find a sweetheart, but then when he was competing with the other bug, and the girl bug was alone on the rock, it was more about her, and how she wished the other two weren't showing off so much...I mean, it's hard to be happy for her with her little beau when he came in so near the end and I never knew who he was.

Absolutely wonderful! Has this ever been submitted to an independent film festival such as Cannes? I think it should win, or at the very least acknowledge you as an burgeoning film talent to be noticed. Bravo!
